Hello All, Need to know if a RecordSet AppendChunk is interactive or does it accumulate the field's data until an Update is called? I'm finding that the Update fails if the total RecordSet size is greater than Max_Allowed_Packet. If the later is true .. I guess I'll need work around suggestions, please.
Below is my test: CREATE TABLE test ( ID INTEGER AUTO_INCREMENT, PRIMARY KEY (ID), szText LONGTEXT, szBlob LONGBLOB ) VB Code =========================================== Const nMaxChunk = 64000 Dim nMaxAllowed as Long On Error Resume Next Dim szString as String szString = String (".", nMaxAllowed + 1) Dim szSQL as String Dim cn as Object Dim rs as Object Set cn = CreateObject ("ADODB.Connection") ... szSQL = "SHOW VARIABLES" -- where variable_name = 'max_allowed_packet' Set rs = cn.Execute (szSQL) nMaxAllowed = rs (1) rs.close szSQL = "SELECT * FROM test WHERE ID = 0" Set rs = CreateObject ("ADODB.Recordset") ... rs.open (szSQL) rs.AddNew Dim t as Long Dim szChunk as String t = 1 do szChunk = mid (szString, t, nMaxChunk) rs ("szMemo").AppendChunk (szChunk) t = t + nMaxChunk loop while (t < nMaxAllowed) t = 1 do szChunk = mid (szString, t, nMaxChunk) rs ("szBlob").AppendChunk (szChunk) t = t + nMaxChunk loop while (t < nMaxAllowed) rs.Update if (err <> 0) then stop rs.Close =========================================== Any suggestions?
